TALES FROM A PARK BENCH IS OPEN DAILY FROM 12 midday till 8pm. LAUNCH PARTY TUESDAY AUGUST 4th 6-9pm. BRING THE WORLD!
TELL A STORY. TELL A JOKE. TELL IT LIKE IT IS. DO WHATEVER TAKES YOUR FANCY. RANT FOR A MINUTE, RHAPSODISE FOR AN HOUR. OR JUST HANG OUT AND HAVE A DRINK
Everyone, and anyone, is welcome: locals, strangers, tourists, musicians, artists, businessmen, housewives, writers, young, old, in-between. Just turn up, have a beer, and if the mood takes you, hop on the bench and play a song, read a poem, tell a funny story or just stand there, watching us, watching you. Oh, and there’s always the chance that no-one will use the bench at all…
So it’s a celebration of real lives, innit. (But then again, it may just be a bunch of drunks in a room slugging back beer.)
LOOK! THERE’S ALL THIS TOO:
Room 2: Don’t miss a video installation of the Youtube classic “The Dog & Carrot”!
Room 3: Kent-based photographer Julia Riddiough’s Do You Remember Me, which questions the foundations of documentary photography by using found images to create a new narrative sequence. Does truth in imagery exist?
+ No-one is Boring, a celebration of the arbitrary nature of living in a city. Buy a piece and help us eat that day
Tales From A Park Bench runs 3-9 August at 22 Chalk Farm Road. Learn more about the project and its associated events by joining the Facebook group
